If you loved Beatrice's struggle against a patriarchal society that controls magic, you'll be captivated by Prunella Gentleman as she uses her magical talents to challenge England's magical establishment. Sorcerer to the Crown weaves a similarly goal-driven plot where the protagonist refuses to accept the limits placed on her, fighting for her own freedom and a better world for others like her.
If Beatrice's journey of self-discovery and growth resonated with you, you'll appreciate Robin and Edwin in A Marvellous Light. Both characters start out constrained by societal expectations and personal doubts, but as the plot unfolds, they find courage and confidence, transforming in deeply satisfying ways.
If you were drawn to the detailed worldbuilding of The Midnight Bargain, with its intricate magical rules and social structures, you'll love how The Once and Future Witches immerses you in an alternate 19th-century America where witchcraft and women’s rights are intertwined. The setting comes alive through lush descriptions and unique magical systems.
If you admired Beatrice’s strength and determination, you’ll find Princess Alyrra in Thorn equally compelling. Alyrra faces betrayal and overwhelming expectations, but she charts her own path with courage and integrity—much like Beatrice standing up to her family and magical society.
If you enjoyed the romantic subplot between Beatrice and Ianthe—filled with longing, obstacles, and true partnership—you’ll be swept away by the tender, complicated romance in The Beautiful Ones. The book masterfully blends magical elements with emotional stakes, making the central relationship both enchanting and deeply moving.
